We believe that Fulbourn is an excellent location for sustainable development.
The land west of Station Road is centrally located and has potential to deliver up to 150 homes within Fulbourn, with excellent links to the sustainable transport network via the Fulbourn Greenway.

Evidence from the CPIER (2018) report identified the east side of the city (of which Fulbourn is on) as offering significant scope for housing and commercial development. Such development would have the advantage of being close to the principal centres of employment and the existing rail infrastructure whilst also opening up opportunities for new transport links to connect the main centres of employment more effectively'.

The land west of Station Road is located within close proximity to shops, services, and facilities including a primary school, together with regular bus services to major employment locations such as Capital Park, Tesco, Biomedical Campus/Addenbrookes Hospital, the railway station area, and the historic city centre and should not be discounted for development. Development of the land west of Station Road would allow for the sustainable growth of Fulbourn as a rural centre and should be included within the plan.




It is clear that policy S/RRA/H/3 (Fulbourn and Ida Darwin Hospitals) are an excellent location for development. Therefore, it seems illogical that available land, so close to this location, such as the land west of Station Road, should be overlooked by this plan. The land west of Station Road has enviable links to the proposed Fulbourn Greenway and would provide an excellent expansion site within the centre of the village. We suggest that the land west of Station Road should be included as an additional allocation within the rural area.
